ふたりだけの夢に Merry X'mas
愛されたらいつもMerry X'mas
待ちぼうけの午後電話投げて
古い手帖ぼんやり見てた
暖炉に揺られてかわしたKISS
12月を想いだしてた
もしもやさしさの魔法が
溶けだしてしまったなら

冬まで待てない
ずっとあたたかいあなたの
その腕につつまれたい
気づいてほしいの
耳をすまして静かな夜
あなたの声が贈り物よ
ふたりだけの夢に Merry X'mas
愛されたらいつも Merry X'mas
ひまわりの模様のスカートでも
胸のなかはイヴのあの夜
雪に輝いたくれた指輪
一度だってはずさないのに
もしも過ぎてゆく時間が
心まで変えるのなら
冬まで待てない
もっと誰よりも綺麗に
なれるまで愛されたい
わかってほしいの

もしもやさしさの魔法が
溶けだしてしまったなら
冬まで待てない
ずっとあたたかいあなたの
その腕につつまれたい
気づいてほしいの
胸をあわせて踊りたいの
おなじ気持ちで踊りたいの

ふたりだけの夢に Merry X'mas
愛されたらいつも Merry X'mas
